The Opticom™ Phase Selector validates the request andprovides input to the traffic controller, which thenprovides a green light through normal operations.
In a manner that appears natural, the vehicle gainsvaluable time along the route without hindering overall traffic flow.

When an emergency vehicle responds to a 911 call or when a transit vehicle needs to pick up schedule time, theOpticom™ Infrared System gives equipped vehicles an advantage at intersections.
For traffic engineers:“Comprehensive” doesn’t have to mean “complicated.”
For emergency service providers:Faster response for a world where every second counts.
For mass transit operations:Lower costs, happier riders and reduced environmental impact.
Helping manage the world’s trafficproblems, one intersection at a time.As the world becomes a busier and more crowded place, traffic concerns are growing everywhere.
The Opticom™ Infrared System can go a long way toward meeting these challenges.Using coded infrared transmitters mounted on your emergency and transit vehicles, theOpticom infrared system communicates securely with the intersection traffic controllerto gain a temporary right of way. The system has been proven effective at thousands ofinstallations all over the world—helping elevate safety, minimize traffic disruptions,accelerate response times, improve service reliability, reduce crashes and save lives.
So whether you work in traffic management, transit or emergency services, you nowhave the ability to manage intersection traffic flow. And that can make a big differencein the efficiency, reliability and safety of your roadways.
About Global Traffic Technologies
Global Traffic Technologies was formed from 3M’s pioneering intelligent transportationsystems. Our mission is to use our proven technologies and innovative mindset toimprove traffic management and safety all over the world.

Studies show that an effective signal
preemption system improves
response times by an average of 20%,
while simultaneously reducing
crashes at controlled intersections.1
And it’s no secret that response times
and risk mitigation are critical in the
emergency service world. The
Opticom infrared system provides
unique, precise control that
anticipates vehicle movement and
helps responders get to their
destinations as quickly and safely
as possible.
Improves safety by eliminating priority conflict at the intersection
• “First-come, first-served” authorization
Validates emergency vehicle status and authorizes signal preemption
• Secure, encoded infrared communication
• Protection from unauthorized devices
• Vehicle identification with time stamp and activity log
Provides data reporting
• Preemption logs by vehicle for liability identification and diagnostic capability
The Opticom infrared system can
handle the needs of both emergency
vehicle preemption and transit signal
priority. What’s even more
impressive is that it does this without
making things complicated. The
system installs easily at intersections
and on vehicles, integrates with
existing traffic controllers, minimizes
the impact on general traffic flow
and helps reduce the number of
crashes at intersections. Life, after all,
can be complicated enough.
Integrates easily into current cabinets
• Opticom™ Phase Selector plugs directly into CA/NY170 and most NEMA hardware
• Compatible with most traffic controllers with internal preemption and priority
Enables conflict-free use among emergency service and transit vehicles
• “First-come, first-served” authorization
• Priority differentiation
Minimizes disruption of traffic flow
• Adjustable activation range for optimal green time and minimal traffic disruption
Provides complete call history log
• Confirmation of authorization, time of preemption and priority,direction, duration, and vehicle passage for up to 1,000 events
Whether you’re looking to improve
headway, increase schedule
adherence or activate queue
jumping, the Opticom infrared
system will serve you well. It
provides a temporary advantage to
individual buses, as needed, to help
them catch up to schedules and
maintain progression—crucial factors
for maintaining a loyal rider base and
attracting newcomers. Improving
route timing by 10% or more may
help you reduce your fleet needs.2
Enables automated operations
• Communicates with AVL for conditional priority, enablingautomated operation
Integrates with existing systems
• Supports J1708 standard
Provides per-vehicle identification data
• Eases creation of “before and after” effectiveness reports
• Enhances traffic signal controller reporting
